It's not supposed to be making any knocking noises.  That generally is a bad thing.  It could be a bearing or something as simple as a broken spring.   Does it do it on all speeds and all amounts of tension?

Have you moved either of the safety guards/work holders up/down so that they're being caught by the arms as they move? That's quite a simple error to make that I fell foul to a few times before I took them off.

They hold the work down and protect your fingers, there's one above and one below the table (depending on your model.)
